3.0 out of 5 stars Not able to access Windows shares
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2012
While I can browse the SD card perfectly well, I can't access SMB shares on my network with this app. I don't need this for browsing the SD card, so it doe not perform the function for which I bought it.

This app is very buggy and locks up often. Large files such as videos (the reason I purchased it) always cause it to crash.

Really did not do what I though it was going to do.t may work for others. It's okay but you may need to look for something else

1.0 out of 5 stars can't handle large directories
Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2012
it won't open my music folder. It opens other folders on the same server so I'm assuming the problem is the number of folders in my music directory.

no demo and it doesn't work... avoid it

I googled this app and found their website. provides instructions on how-to. they should provide that info or a link to that info before you purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars kindle fire: doesn't play
Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2011
good: browses network shares no problem
bad: tries to copy file locally before playing it, and during this process the app is considered non-responding and closed :(

Really looking for an app that will stream anyway.
